lyrics

Everybody feels so bad sometimes
Whatcha gonna do? (Whatcha gonna do?)
Everybody feels so sad sometimes
Whatcha gonna do? (Whatcha gonna do?)

When you’re feeling wicked bad and you wish that
You could disappear under your Phillies hat
And you wanna scream out and you wanna shout
Here’s a little something you should think about

Everybody feels so bad sometimes
Whatcha gonna do? (Whatcha gonna do?)
Everybody feels so mad sometimes
Whatcha gonna do? (Whatcha gonna do?)

When ya gettin pushed around on the playground
By some bully shoving people off the merry go round
Just pick yourself up, don’t push back
Take a walk around the block to get your mind on track

I’m gonna walk (walk)
Up and down the block
I’m gonna sing (sing)
Until I feel alright
I’m gonna take a deep breath and start all over again
So I can do my thing
I’m gonna walk (walk walk)
Up and down the block
I’m gonna sing (sing)
Until I feel alright
I’m gonna shake an etch-a-sketch and start all over again
But first I’ll count to ten:
1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10!

Gotta be a way to reset your day
But what can you do?
Take a little time to release your mind and
Stop feelin’ blue
What can you do?

I’m gonna walk (walk)
Up and down the block
I’m gonna sing (sing)
Until I feel alright
I’m gonna take a deep breath and start all over again
So I can do my thing
I’m gonna walk (walk walk)
Up and down the block
I’m gonna sing (sing)
And do the shing-a-ling
I’m gonna shake an etch-a-sketch and put it back on the shelf
But first I’ll count to twleve:
1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12
